Outlook: The Tracy Bulldogs will experience a pretty deep rebuilding year after several strong seasons. Key players to watch this year include Depray Celestine WR and Jordon Strong FB. Strong produced excellent rushing yards last year and Celenstine comes from good heritage. The Bulldogs are young and inexperienced. Coach Mark Stroup will be working especially hard with the offensive line. The team will be carried by the talented and skilled players. And they have a successful junior varsity squad to fill in some of the holes left by a sweeping graduation.
